There are a lot of Pros here:Excellent location:5 mins from St. Vital mall, restaurants (moxies,boston pizza, original joes)15 mins from Forks Market.Friendly front desk staffQuiet rooms even when the attached pub is busy.Very comfy bedsGood sized roomsGood price

Cons:The hotel staff never cleaned our room. We left at around 1pm turned the sign to clean the cleaning staff was in the hall and saw us leave. We came back several hours later it was after 1am and the housekeeping tag was right where we left it but no clean room. We were very tired our check out was the next morning anyway so we called down for towels and called it a night.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We appreciate the feedback. I am happy to hear you enjoyed your stay with us. You mentioned that you placed a sign on your door when you left your room for the day. This would have been our hotel's Do Not Disurb sign which would be an indicator to our housekeeping department that you did not want any one to enter your room. I apologize for the confusion and am happy to hear our front desk staff were able to assist you with some clean towels.

It looks like new inside and the staff was very friendly. Plus their beds are sooo comfy. :) The location is perfect is central St. Vital and close the mall. I recommend this hotel for business travellers and families. Great value.

My friends and I went up to Winnipeg for the weekend. The concierges Isobella and Andrejs were very helpful in where to go and how to get there. The rooms were very nice and the maids seemed to be always making sure everything was nice and clean. The pub next door, Tapp's, was also great and filled with amazing servers.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay. Andrejs and Isobella are great assets to our team and they will be happy to see your review acknowledging their hard work. We are lucky to have them as part of our team. Tapps' is a great pub and very popular with locals and visitors to our city.

Yes, some of the other reviewers would echo our concerns. The young man who greeted us, was marvelous. Andreja, was the concierge, who greeted us. We were told that if it is a two storey, Manitoba will not allow an elevator, so if you have mobility issues, this is not a place to go. The other joyful news we got was that 8 a.m. the water was to be shut off. Then it was changed to 9 a.m. and check-out is 11. My friend who had booked the accommodation got an e-mail, advising that they were cancelling our reservation (we had already booked in). We were three women and a dog. However, the young man at the desk (they are truly blessed to have him) found two other young men with muscle to help us with our bags, he helped at the breakfast area in the morning and helped us figure out how to get out of Winnipeg and back on the road. If you are on a road trip, find a hotel closer to the highway. Winnipeg, I found was a confusing city to get around. Lot's of poverty in the downtown core. Sad to see.

Room Tip: Get a room close to the stairs...

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. You were with us on a very challenging weekend! A water main break on the street behind the hotel resulted in the City of Winnipeg turning off the hotel's water supply periodically throughout the weekend causing inconveniences to our guests for which we sincerely aplogize. I am happy to hear that Andrejs was able to assist you during your stay. We have a great team here at the Econolodge Winnipeg South. The hotel is located in a newly renovated, older building that does not have an elevator. We do our best to advise our guests of this when they are making their reservation. We hope you enjoyed the remainder of your road trip.

I was surprised when we drove up to this hotel to find it in the top floor of a strip mall. Their was no elevator to move our bags up to the second story. The room smelled somewhat smokey, which surprised me considering it is a non-smoking hotel. I went to open the window to air it out only to find that directly below our window was a bar's patio full of smokers. As we went to get ready for bed the bar started becoming very popular, with two bouncers outside. There was no way I was getting any sleep above a bar and packed patio full of rowdy drunk patrons. I went downstairs to ask if we could move rooms. Unfortunately their were no other available rooms with two beds (which we required). Their were 6 or so empty rooms with just one king bed, and after half an hour of waiting while the manager ran around and consulted with other employees, we were told that she was not willing to provide us with two rooms (in-order to get the two separate beds we required). I was told that we would have to remain in our original room, and that if we waited until about 1am that the patio and bar would quiet down, and they would offer us a meagre 15% discount. If you want to stay in a hotel above a popular bar that sounds like a frat house, then by all means, book at this hotel. If you are looking for a restful sleep, I recommend you look elsewhere.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. I am sorry to hear you did not enjoy your stay. The hotel is located in a newly renovated but older building which does present some limitations at times. On busier weekends the rooms over the pub are utilized and can be nosier than some of the other rooms. On the weekend you were with us we were unfortunately sold out of the rooms with two queen beds and could only offer to accommodate you in the room with the king bed and sofa sleeper. Your reservation shows that you were checked in with a discounted rate and that an additional 15% discount was applied at check out time. Please accept our sincere apologies for your inconvenience.

Very disappointed. Called and booked reservations two weeks in advance showed up and the claimed they don't have a reservation under our name. Then proceed to charge us a higher rate. We were very pleased with the room but when we left for dinner and returned there was no place left to park. We waited and circled the parking lot for many laps. Finally we got a parking spot. Also the concierge was very unhelpful and not very courteous about finding our "missing" reservation. I question his ability to use a computer.

We were looking for a place to spend the night after a concert we planned to attend in Wpg.All of our usual spots were either full or at mid week prices, which seem to be higher. The venue was the MTS centre so we were looking for something downtown Wpg. Did a search and this Econo Lodge came up. At first I ignored it, but then it seemed to be the only one in our range that was available.It's on St Marys which is perhaps not on the beaten path for hotels, but is in the middle of a bunch of eating places, grocery store and very close to a major mall, St Vital Shopping Center.The drive downtown only took 10-15 minutes.The rooms themselves were newly renovated. Clean, quiet and comfortable. Free wireless, which worked!Staff was very friendly and helpful. Continental breakfast, included, had a decent variety.We don't need a pool or exercise room so this place worked very well for us. Attached is a great eatery called Tapps Neighbourhood Pub. Again, clean, great food, reasonable pricing and great service.So if you need a place to rest your head, we'd recommend this place.

Room Tip: All rooms are on second floor and no elevators.
